Monday 23rd April 2012 in Sydney

Everything seems to be breaking, couldn’t turn my notebook on last night and it still wouldn’t this morning, the wifi on my phone stopped working and my clothes that have been at the bottom of one of my panniers have gone mouldy! That’s my fault though I had a can of beer burst and forget to take everything out! Spent the day going around the shops getting spares for the bike, got my phone sorted, don’t know what it was but the girl in the phone shop sorted it out. Laptops gone in for repair, hopefully they’ll be able to fix it and my clothes have been washed.

For lunch we went to a RSL club which stands for returns service league, basically their big social clubs where you can get a drink, something to eat and they have poker machines, it’s $5 for a years membership, but for a guest like me from out of the area you get free admission, the drinks and food are also a lot cheaper, we had a eat as much as you like buffet for $12 each.

Worked out pretty well doing all these boring bits today as it’s been raining for much of the day.
